Most gun deaths are suicides. The US has a lower suicide rate than some of those countries.
Yeah ok but we’re talking about homicides.
On the topic of gun deaths, I wanted emphasize that fact since the discussion revolves around gun control. To be clear, the chart addresses gun homicides. And as stated in the link:
The Australian study found that buying back 3,500 guns per 100,000 people correlated with up to a 50 percent drop in firearm homicides, and a 74 percent drop in gun suicides. As Dylan Matthews noted for Vox, the drop in homicides wasn’t statistically significant. But the drop in suicides most definitely was — and the results are striking.
